While I didn't say so in my initial post, I too think it's a little too nice. The lower boot strap appears to be new and not a crack in the leather anywhere. The stock, as Wes points out, is much too blonde. It's gotten into some serious money and I would definitely want a return priviledge if I were bidding.

What surprised me most was the way the bidding took off so quickly after appearing on ebay. That's unusual with more than 5 days remaining. Usually the real bidding is in the final minutes of an auction. I guess this one has appeal.
